Songs disappearing out of the blue (ABBA) is not acceptable

Today ABBA's whole catalogue but Chiquitita disappeared in my location.

This annoys me quite a bit. I planned yesterday to learn Waterloo, Dancing Queen and The Winner Takes It All in multiple instruments so that a person close to me could sing some of those songs on top of that.

I managed to learn and record bass for Waterloo in the morning. Then practiced the piano version (which I had already some time ago). Then decided to have a proper break before trying to record 100% tempo take (using a DAW). But when I got back, I noticed that I couldn't find the song in your website. That was weird. Okay, then got back to the ipad, and the song had vanished from there also. What? In the middle of the day (licensing is location based afaik).

I get that you have business reasons to uphold licenses, but you just cannot do this abrupt deletion, because people plan for learning a song and record it and share it to others.

To have bare minimum standard, could you at least announce when a song is going to be removed?

As a feature request, could you show the beats per minute information in the song, please? So I don't need to get it from you website. I need that to record midi instrument at proper tempo.

Improve practice routine: save sections of songs

I was just playing a couple of songs that'll need months to practice (e.g. Resistance by Muse), and it dawned on me that on many songs I would like to save the parts that are difficult and quickly access them.

Not just the whole songs in a playlist - that I have been doing for years.

In general I'd like to select parts of a song and save them to a "my practice routine" which would be at the home page to be easily accessible.

Then if the burden of navigation was lessened, it would be nice to have a general "go to the prev/next song(/practice bit) in the playlist" immediately after the current song.

Other suggestion: more keyboard shortcuts, e.g. when skipping silent section, there is button for mouse, but not a key shortcut afaik.

I have had Yousician over 8 years, and play bass, guitar, piano and sing with it. Love it! The more I've played, the less I use it in play mode, and might not even plug instrument it in. The practice mode is enough. OTOH, in singing, it's very valuable to see my own pitch when familiarizing the song.
